This group is for women who will be turning 60 by December 31, 2012, and older. It's been my dream to have a group of women where we support one another through this very important transition as we move into and beyond the sixth decade of our lives. This transition is where we re-define what success means to us—in our personal relationships, our business/work, our community and ourselves. Success is a personal definition, and it will change over time as we transition through the different seas …

I dream of gathering a bunch of wildly creative fiber people and working on the same object at the same time somehow. The goal would be to see just how uniquely we could combine our talents and create something unusual, funny, bizarre - but mostly have fun playing with possibilities by connecting fibers. I think of the quilt circles where all the quilters are working on the same quilt. Well, they are usually kind of working independently but they are working on the same object. And it's more int …

Many of us baby boomers have managed to gain a measure of true independence at this phase of our lives. We are therefore no longer tethered to a corporate job as such. Instead, we get to focus on reinventing ourselves by pursuing interests, hobbies and even dreams we did not quite have time for when we were part of the daily-commute crowd. For me, this means developing for the Kinect platform (and, in the process, falling in love with C# despite my earlier prejudices!), designing an animation pl …

Tell me if any of these sound familiar: “I just wish I had the time — then I’d do my creative thing.” “I want to… but I don’t have the talent. I’m not creative..” “My stuff just isn’t good enough.” “How can I justify spending time creating, when there are so many really important things I have to get done?” “I want to create so badly, so why do I always end up procrastinating?” “I’m a very creative person but unable to find a way to express myself.” “I have lots of huge, long term projects start …

Ubiquitous Media is the messy collision of ubiquitous computing, augmented reality, physical computing, personal sensing, transmedia and urban systems. It's like that old parable of the blind monks trying to describe an elephant; the parts all feel very weird and different, and we're trying to catch a glimpse of the future in its entirety. We are an open network of geeks, artists, experience designers, social scientists and other fellow travelers interested in answering the question "If the worl …

Join us for a fascinating evening with author David R. Gillham, author of City of Women, a multi-layered novel that tackles life in World War II Berlin as Sigrid finds herself caught between what is right and what is wrong. Read more about the novel: Whom do you trust, whom do you love, and who can be saved? It is 1943--the height of the Second World War--and Berlin has essentially become a city of women. Sigrid Schroder is, for all intents and purposes, the model German soldier's wife: She …
